PLAY READING GROUP - Every fortnight


Every other Monday at 20.30 The Madrid Players holds a play reading group.


The aim of the group is for different writers, members or potential directors to bring along a play for us to read and work on – one play per evening. It’s a perfect way to ‘sound out’ a script that you know and would like to hear and maybe develop further.

It’s a great way to try things out, both as actors and writers, so please come along and get involved.

Vic Gibson is co-ordinating this group, so please email him, vic@shipsandoil.com, and let him know you’ll be coming. He’ll is looking forward to hearing from people from you!

The group meets in a venue near to Sol, so email Vic to get the address and confirm the date of the next meeting.


See you there!
